Questions You May Have

What’s the ideal amount to spend on a tech gift? This is entirely up to your personal budget and how much you're comfortable giving. What works for one person may not work for another!

Your budget should be something that fits within your means—this varies from person to person. However, there are some basic pointers to keep in mind when deciding how much to spend.

"The price you pay for a gift depends on various factors, like your available budget and your connection with the person you're buying for. For example, you may spend more on your niece or nephew compared to a more distant relative like a first cousin once removed," explains etiquette specialist Jodi RR Smith from Mannersmith Etiquette Consulting. She also mentions that special events, such as graduations, often require a larger gift budget compared to something like a birthday.

However, it's also important to take into account the context of the gift. "If you have a close-knit group of five friends, the amount you spend on one should be similar to what you spend on the others," says Smith.

Finally, consider pooling together with others for bigger gifts. "For group gifts, it’s best to suggest a contribution amount but remain open to whatever people can give," Smith advises. She even provides an example for collecting funds for a teacher's gift: “We suggest $50 per family, but any donation is appreciated. Please give what you can.”

Where are the best places to purchase gift cards for tech-related gifts?

Although gift cards may feel impersonal, they are an excellent option for tech gifts, particularly given the high costs of many tech products. As Smith points out, "Tech gift cards are a great choice if you know someone is saving for a particular item, such as a gaming computer. Your budget may not be able to cover the full price, but your gift card can help bring that item within reach."

It's recommended to talk to the recipient about their preferred store. While this may spoil the surprise, it's better to give them a gift card they can actually use.
